    Feel like this is going to take ar least 4 for the Crew to win tonight. Hope I'm wrong.

    I don't mind being aggressive, especially with the pitcher coming up, but that was a step too far even for me. Maybe he felt bad for not being at second on the hit. It sure did roll for a while...

    Wow. I don't know if it's exactly stealing one, but it sure feels like it, even if the Brewers had the better of the contact. Feels way bigger than an April win can be.

    I agree that 2018 Counsell would have, bit I think he's responding to something analytocally, maybe something particular to COVID and the shortened season and the pptential for injuries. I'd like to believe Hader would have tried to get 4 outs if it meant beating a division rival in September. Time will tell on that, I guess.

    If they were going to do it now would be the perfect time. I don’t think they’re going to do it anymore, however. Thought the same thing.

    Chris Taylor is one of my least favorite players. Love getting him out. Perhaps this is irrational. I don't know.

    Cannot ask for more. Add on time. Should earn Lauer another shot for sure.

    Just signed on to comment on that. Unexpected. x2 (or 3). If he's throwing that, that is encouraging.
  12. Cool Hand Lucroy
    Yes. Nice to see a pitch to contact approach.
  13. Cool Hand Lucroy
    Making pretty good contact so far (both teams really). A fun game with a nice pace.

    Signs point to something COVID-related, or at least not a traditional injury. DS saying "pause" makes me think COVID, but maybe that's just leftover vocab from CBB season. Hope it's a short stay, either way. That this team is 14-10 through this schedule and with these injuries is, uh, pretty amazing.

    Didn't something happen in the Mexican League last year (or two years ago) where the batter swung and missed and the umpire called a ball? https://www.si.com/mlb/2018/07/20/mexican-league-umpires-suspended-missed-strike-call-video The bunt missed call is not that far from this clip, honestly. As to the interference, rules are often written to be vague enough to allow for a wide berth of interpretations. Mostly, this is done to to keep power in the hands of certain people (look at how my health insurance company interprets coverage documents, or the people in charge of my car warranty can plausibly deny claims they should, via the spirit of the agreement, cover). This just feels like an umpire using the flexibility the rulebook allows for in an utterly irresponsible way--to avoid taking ownership of a call that violates the entire concept of interference. How he could watch that play and continue to defend that call is just self-delusion. It's way worse than the initial mistake to me. If he really thinks interference is justified in that scenario, then he and I are have totally different conceptions of baseball.

    Man, do the Brewers need to get away from Sinclair. It just seems like a sinking ship that's basically pulling out all the stops in order to subsist year-by-year. Of course, it also seems like the team is better off with $xx million from Sinclair now than with anyone else, and maybe that's the bigger issue. If MLB doesn't address TV revenue through collective bargaining or implement more robust revenue-sharing, then the Brewers are always going to be scrapping. I guess I just hope they wind up with a company more forward-looking and less hellbent on trying to squeeze every last penny out of a dying revenue model.

    Welp. Onto the next one. Good to see Hiura get a hit. Were going to need more than 2 today. Hope the offense can help out a bit theis weekend. Really just need to get healthy.
  18. Cool Hand Lucroy
    Boxberger's stuff looks filthy compared to the God-/Yard-ley's of the world. Nice play from Urias too.
  19. Cool Hand Lucroy
    Sure we'll see Weigel and Perdomo at some point.
  20. Cool Hand Lucroy
    If the offense can't rally, the good news is the pitching will be well set up for 4 vs. the Dodgers. Ibwas hoping to get out of April 13-13, so this will be a good first month any way you slice it and especially with all the injuries.

    Givingup RBI hits to the 8 hitter with a base open is no fun.
  22. Cool Hand Lucroy
    Yardley is the bullpen Matt Garza for me. Fine. Every roster has guys like that. But they are decidedly mediocre and absolutely no fun to watch.
  23. Cool Hand Lucroy
    This game just has bad mojo all the way through, starting with Godley. Ridiculous call costs the Brewers a run. Passed ball. Bad call changes complexion of Aguilar AB. Aguilar pulls a pitch way high and away, and McKinney mistimes it at the wall. Wong loses transfer on potential DP. Brewers hitting into some deep flyouts. And now ball pops out of Wong's glove on potential CS. Bad bounces, bad execution, nad matchup. Kind of amazing to still be sort of in it.

    Just saw that play....wow. So incompetent.
  25. Cool Hand Lucroy
    Good work, Zach. Maybe the offense manages to win us one today.
